Is the beach good for sunbathing?

Burns Beach (Golden Horseshoe) is not fully equipped for sunbathing. However, if you are not picky and are willing to spread out on a towel, you can sunbathe here as well. The natural shade will allow you to hide from the scorching sun in the peak of its activity. Well, the photos of our visitors will be the best proof of that, all the available photos of the beach are above.This beach is poorly suitable for sunbathing. First of all Burns Beach (Golden Horseshoe) is completely lacking in comfortable sunbathe facilities. There are no sun loungers and umbrellas, this is usually not a problem for an unsophisticated tourist who can relax on a towel, but in this case the rest can be very uncomfortable due to pebbles.Lying on it is possible, but is far from comfortable. In addition there is a lack of natural shade, which leaves you alone with the summer sun. So our recommendation is that you can sunbathe comfortably on the Burns Beach for a short time, and not at the peak of sunbathing. If you want to explore the photos of this beach - they are above on the page.

4 Frustrating

Dillon Road curves to the left and descends towards the water. It's possible to drive almost right up to the water. There used to be a narrow strip of land between the eroding bluffs and the lake. In 2020, that strip is gone except for a few small areas further along. Even when calm, water is right against the eroding bluffs. Many trees have fallen over from erosion., making walking along the shore more difficult. Water is now even more cloudy. Because of the cloudy water and almost no actual beach, I am only giving 2 stars. However I like the place. It's nice to stop for a bit, look around and maybe take a swim. But if you want to spend more time at a beach, go elsewhere, maybe Erieau. When there are big waves the water will be very muddy and uninviting, but you may get to see spectacular splashes as waves hit the breakwall.
